Happy

Day 115

Thursday 27th of June

Sometimes I think it is hard to remember how happy we were
together. There are events that are possible to remember and highlights that catch
the mind. Happiness is an emotion though and not a thought, I think that means
it is harder to recall. A thought is something that can be stored and rethought.
Brought back out from time to time and thought again, changed, merged, returned
to the original and thought again. As such they can be remembered, like a place
or a time of year, you can go back and be there again.

Emotions are much less tangible and I think that makes them
more elusive. When you are experiencing an emotion it is full power. The
emotion can be everything, or just part of a thing, however it is at its
fullest in the moment and retaining or returning to an emotional sensation is
an impossible feat I suspect.

Looking at these photos from May 2009 I think I can grasp at
a sense of how happy Stacy and I were.

We are on our way to a weekend away and stopped at a
beautiful roadside country café. Stacy ordered a burger, as is her want, I
ordered Devonshire Tea. The photos capture the moment when Stacy decides she
now wants Devonshire Tea as well.

I knew this was going to happen, she knew this was going to
happen and we are both so in love with each other and the spectacular
relationship we have built that this is something we are happy about. I play the inconvenienced husband, Stacy plays the
cheeky and doted on wife. We share my scones with jam and cream and are so
happy it comes tearing out of the pictures.
